55This spot is definitely a redo! Lots of space for my pup to just run and enjoy himself. He’s never seen a kiddy pool so it was fun to see him explore that and there were lots of fun toys he enjoyed throwing around. We will definitely be back! Tori S.

55What an awesome place! I took my foster there so he could have some room to run around and he LOVED IT. The space is completely fenced in and secure. There’s plenty of space for your pup(s) to explore and toys to play with! My dog liked seeing the dogs a few doors down. I’ll definitely be booking again.Rachel J.

55We absolutely loved this Sniffspot! We got there a little late and Sophia was very understanding. We also had tons of questions about what we were allowed to use and she was very responsive. This is a great little spot, very well kept, and fun! Sophia left plenty of toys out for us, a water bowl, and even a kiddie pool for my dog. Lots of shade for owners to sit and relax as well. This is my new favorite spot and we’ll be back for sure!Koda K.

55Such a fun spot! The yard was clean and fencing was secure enough for my 30lb escape artist. My pups had a great time running around and exploring. My water dog enjoyed the pool while my other dog (who is not a big fan of water) sunbathed!Rachel V.

55This was our first time using SniffSpot and it was great. The owner left fresh water for my dog as well as myself, treats and balls to play fetch with. We had a great time and it is super close to my apartment complex which is great! The only thing I would say is I wasn’t 100% sure if the yard was fully fenced in the back so I was keeping my dog away from the area just in case. I plan on asking the owner for when we go back!

FAQ about our Cincinnati small dog parks
Are small dog parks safe?
While public dog parks have a number of safety issues, such as aggressive dogs, disease transmission and general cleanliness, Sniffspot dog parks are much safer than public dog parks. With Sniffspot all bookings are private for just you and dogs you bring with you and we require all dogs to be vaccinated (or have equivalent titers). All Sniffspot locations are vetted and reviewed by park users so you can find the perfect place for you and your dog. 93% of reviews on Sniffspot visits are 5 stars.
How can I find small dog parks in Cincinnati?
There are 81 small dog parks in the Cincinnati area. The most popular small dog park is . You can browse all of our small dog parks here.
How do I know if a small dog park works for my dog?
Start by applying basic filters, such as fencing and distractions, to find a dog park that works for your furry friends. If your dog doesn't respond to owner commands, you can visit one of our enclosed dog park areas. If your dog is reactive to other dogs, you can visit one of our small dog park sites where there are no dogs audible or visible nearby. You can see any park amenities provided, including a park bench, water for dogs or water features such as kiddie pool or water hose. If your dog loves water, you can go to a park with water features, but if they don't love water, you can avoid them. We also recommend reading reviews to check for park maintenance issues and reaching out to the host with any questions. And lastly, of course, check park hours. Many of our parks are open from dawn until dusk.
What are the requirements to bring my dog to a Sniffspot park?
We require that all dogs have basic vaccinations or equivalent titers. We do not allow dogs with a bite history. We require that owners sign our waiver and agree to follow our safety rules. We also require that pet owners follow safety protocols around water features.
Will there be other dogs at the Sniffspot park at the same time as me?
Sniffspot only allows one booking at a time and any host dogs are required to be kept away from the spot during visits. We also enforce 30 min time buffers between bookings.
If you are planning an amazing small dog park party, each Sniffspot park has their own rules regarding special events. Many parks allow doggie birthday parties, training, water parties and other event types. Event organizers need to be responsible for their guests and event organizers should coordinate with the host regarding their fun party. Make sure the park has amenities you need for your party, such as a park with lots of picnic tables with park benches.
